I'd go for Win10, especially considering gaming (DX12).

we could then make some basket examples, i think that would make the discussion much more constructive
btw, i think that applying the thermal paste should be easy, watch a video or two and there is nothing that can go wrong.

£97 and you get incredibly fast read/write speeds compared to SATA SSD's, it's only £40 odd more and you get another 16gb of memory too. I've also heard Kingston drives aren't great either compared to Crucial or Samsung.
Otherwise everything seems good. Hope you get it sorted out mate GL

That SSD isn't great Hans, honestly the m.2 drives are a lot faster and are pretty cost effective too

Ah... well probably should have read the rest of the thread before typing this out, rookie mistake. Glad you went for the m.2 SSD haha.

lagfree gaming without second streaming PC is almost not possible, if you want play on the highest possible graphicsettings and even use 1080p60fps in stream settings, still different which game you play and i didnt know how good the new nvidea graphicscard will working^^

His new one could easily handle common stream quality in the background. Also keep in mind he wanted to use his old PC for this purpose.
Btw, why are you so focused on 1080p60fps?
